The 10Gbps host connectivity is achieved by inserting SFP+ into the SFP+
cages on iSCSI ports and data signals are sent through optical cables.
The 10Gbps iSCSI channel standard allows for optical connections only. Optical
cables can be used over longer distances and have been shown to be more
reliable. Due to the demands of high transfer rates, optical cables are preferred
for 10Gb iSCSI connectivity. Optical cables are also less susceptible to EMI.
